Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

In my opinion it was not edited by the seller. Cropping a photo and editing a photo are two different animals. Crop is cutting parts out of a photo that have nothing to do with the purpose of the photo. editing is changing things such as color saturation, sharpness, lightness/tint and so on. The camera the seller has (when used by someone that does not know how to use them) will automatically adjust the picture to its "perfect" setting. IE the camera will detect what defects it thinks are in the picture and adjust it accordingly.
And why buy a 800 dollar camera, well at least for me, i purchased a nice DSLR camera cause im a hobby photographer. cant speak to why gale has one but i can deffinately take photos with a DSLR that i could never even imagine trying to take with a point and shoot digital camera.
So it all depends on what answer you want tom. Is the photo adjusted? Yes
was it adjusted by gale? Not neccessarily due to the camera that she uses.

Nice catch.
Nicole-The point of sending the original out is for SOMEONE ELSE to verify they haven't been altered.

That's exactly why I made the offer of giving my email address so it could be sent to me, or someone else those here may consider reliable enough to verify the data. Having it verified by her "website guy" doesn't do much in the way of reliability.

Whatever exif viewer he is using there doesn't seem to even be listing the "source" of the image. None of that information there really seems all that relevant to what we were trying to determine.
It would still be best to get one of the original files and send it to someone ELSE, someone reliable, to be verified.

Play and twist how ever you want to break down my words. How about this.
If the animal looks how it does in Sheena's care ( duller ) why would Nicole even post this animal looking bright red and yellow knowing this isnt how the animal really looks??? No matter who altered it. Nicole, her web guy, her camera or god. (hope i narrowed it down enough for you)
